Pursuing Passion: New Camera Equip.

My Story:

Greetings Friends & Family,

Many of you who have known me for quite some time have seen how my love and passion for photography have grown over the years. What started simply as taking a few fun snaps with a little compact Canon point-and-shoot evolved into a genuine interest...then a serious interest...and now into a passion. I've spent (and continue to spend...) countless hours reading books on the subject, watching YouTube tutorials and most importantly, just getting out there and shooting.

The fulfillment I get from bringing my images to life, sharing them selflessly and receiving such gracious praise and critique is unexplainable. This is one of the reasons that I've never plastered watermarks across the middle of my online work or posted lo-res images. I want my work to be enjoyed in the way in which it was intended.

So that brings me to where I am now: It is my intention, in the not too distant future, to transition my love and passion for photography into being more of a profession. There's nothing better that doing what you love and being able to make a living from it.  However, truth-be-told, the world of photography is an expensive one. The camera and lenses I currently own have taken me a good distance and were appropriate for where I was while my interests were still that of a hobbyist, but if I'm to take the next step forward, I'll definitely need to upgrade to something of more professional quality.

If you would be so generous, I would love your support in bringing my love, passion and future goals to fruition. Any amount you donate would be greatly appreciated.

In return (and nothing has really changed), I do offer and will continue to offer anything that I post on any of my social sites as a show of gratitude. All images are of high resolution and are fit to print or can be used as desktop wallpaper. Most can be printed up to 16"x20" with no image degradation. If there are any photos that you are interested in having printed, please let me know so I can edit them to the proper cropped format of your choice. If you'd like me to handle the printing, I can make the necessary arrangements and let you know how much the cost will be.

Thanks in advance for your love and support,
Craig Scarlett

*For you camera buffs, the amount that I'm looking to raise is for a Nikon D750 + Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8 lens. :-)
